Electrochemical adsorption always was accompanied with solvent displacement and relative size factor(x) of adsorbate and solvent and hydrogen coverage(${\theta}$) on the lead anodic film electrode formed in phosphoric acid in NaCl solution and the sea water at $15{\sim}35^{\circ}C$ were studied by means of constant current-potential method and potentiodynamic cathodic polarization method. In this experiment, various constants and thermodynamic quantities calculated from the hydrogen coverage were also described to explain the reactivities of di-iso-butylnitrosoamine(DBNA) and proton ($H^+$) according to the changes of interactions between solute and solvent in the bulk phase and interphase. It was investigated that the average values of relative size factor and the coverage of hydrogen atoms studied with the electrode of lead anodic film formed in phosphoric acid solution in 60mM DBNA+0.5M NaCl and in 60mM DBNA+$6\%0$ sea water were about 11.0 and 0.2 respectively. Hydrogen evolution was electrochemical mechanism because of substitutional adsorption of aromatic substance with their delocalization of electrons, but in the case of non-charge transfer adsorption of aliphatic substance(DBNA) interacting relatively little with the electrode, it was combination mechanism.

A promising capacitor, which has conformable step coverage and good uniformity of thickness and composition, is needed to manufacture high-density non-volatile FeRAM capacitors with a stacked cell structure. In this study, ferroelectric $Bi_{3.61}Nd_{0.39}Ti_3O_{12}$ (BNdT) thin films were prepared on $Pt(111)/TiO_2/SiO_2/Si$ substrates by the liquid delivery system MOCVD method. In these experiments, $Bi(ph)_{3}$, $Nd(TMHD)\_{3}$ and $Ti(O^iPr)_{2}(TMHD)_{2}$ were used as the precursors and were dissolved in n-butyl acetate. The BNdT thin films were deposited at a substrate temperature and reactor pressure of approximately $600^{\circ}C$ and 4.8 Torr, respectively. The microstructure of the layered perovskite phase was observed by XRD and SEM. The remanent polarization value (2Pr) of the BNdT thin film was $31.67\;{\mu}C/cm^{2}$ at an applied voltage of 5 V.

Ferroelectric SrBi2Ta2O9 (SBT) thin films of Pt/Ti/SiO2 electrode were fabricated using a sintered SBT target with various Bi2O3 content by rf magnetron sputtering. Good hysteresis loop characteristics were observed in the SBT thin films deposited with 50mol% excess Bi target. SBT thin films crystallized from 650℃ however, good hysteresis loop can be obtained in the film annealed above 700℃. pt/TiO2/SiO2 and Pt/SiO2 electrodes were also used to investigate the Pt electrode dependence of SBT thin films. SBT thin films showed random oriented polycrystalline structure and similar morphology regardless of electrodes with quite different surface morphology. A 0.2㎛ thick SBT film annealed at 750℃ exhibited the remanent polarization (2Pr) of μC/㎠ and coercive voltage(Vc) of 1V at an applied voltage of 5V.

Functionalized SAB-15 samples by octadecyltrimethoxysilane (OTC) were studied by 13C magic angle spinning (MAS) cross polarization (CP) nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. In the SBA-15 sample fully functionalized by 3-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane (APS) and OTC in 1:1 molar ratio, octadecyl chains were observed to have, on average, more trans conformation than those in the SBA-15 samples fully modified by OTC only. Our results confirm that long chain molecules tend to organize themselves better in the co-presence of short chain molecules on the surface of mesoporous materials by packing of the different length chains in an interdigitized fashion even when the short chains are long enough to have three carbons and a functional group at the ends. In addition, our results indicate that solid-state 13C CP MAS NMR spectroscopy is a simple and non-destructive method to probe the molecular structures of the domains composed of long alkyl chains.

Optimization of ionomer solution was conducted in order to improve the performance of MEAs in PEMPC. The interface between membrane and electrodes in MEAs is crucial region determining fuel cell performance as well as ORR reaction at cathode. Through the modification of Nafion ionomer content at the interface between membrane and electrodes, an optimal content was obtained with Nafion 115 membranes. Two times higher current density was obtained with the outer Nafion sprayed MEA compared with the non-sprayed one. In addition, the symmetrical impedance spectroscopy mode (SM) exhibited that the resistances of membrane area, proton hydration, and charge transfer decreased as the outer Nafion is sprayed. From the polarization curves and SM, the highest current density and the lowest resistance was obtained at the outer ionomer content of $0.15\;mg\;cm^{-2}$.

Conductive and dielectric SiC are fabricated using electroless plating of Ni-Fe films on SiC chopped fibers to obtain lightweight and high-strength microwave absorbers. The electroless plating of Ni-Fe films is achieved using a two-step process of surface sensitizing and metal plating. The complex permeability and permittivity are measured for the composite specimens with the metalized SiC chopped fibers dispersed in a silicone rubber matrix. The original non-coated SiC fibers exhibit considerable dielectric losses. The complex permeability spectrum does not change significantly with the Ni-Fe coating. Moreover, dielectric constant is sensitively increased with Ni-Fe coating, owing to the increase of the space charge polarization. The improvements in absorption capability (lower reflection loss and small matching thickness) are evident with Ni-Fe coating on SiC fibers. For the composite SiC fibers coated with Ni-Fe thin films, a -35 dB reflection loss is predicted at 7.6 GHz with a matching thickness of 4 mm.

The ferroelectric materials of the PZT, SBT attracted much attention for application to ferroelectric random access memory (FRAM) devices. Through the last decade, the lead zirconate titanate (PZT) is one of the most attractive perovskite-type materials for the ferroelectric products due to its higher remanant polarization and the ability to withstand higher coercive fields. FRAM has been currently receiving increasing attention for one of future memory devices due to its ideal memory properties such as non-volatility, high charge storage, and faster switching operations. In this study, we first applied the damascene process using chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) to the fabricate the $Pb_{1.1}(Zr_{0.52}Ti_{0.48})O_3$ thin film capacitor in order to solve the problems of plasma etching such as low etching profile and ion charging. The structural characteristics were compared with specimens before and after CMP process of PZT films. The scanning electron microscopy (SEM) analysis was performed to compare the morphology surface characteristics of $Pb_{1.1}(Zr_{0.52}Ti_{0.48})O_3$ capacitors. The densification by the vertical sidewall patterning and charging-free ferroelectric capacitor could be obtained by the damascene process without remarkable difference of the characteristics.

The scattering of a normally incident monochromatic light by optically active concentric double cylinders is studied by using a numerical method. A numerical code is developed on the basis of the analytical solutions, and the angular distributions of the intensity and the polarization of the scattered light are computed for some specific cases. The numerical code can be used to non-invasively determine the size, structure, and composition of a double cylinder with high accuracy by measuring the angular distribution of the scattered light by an experiment.

In this study we present a new improved nonlinear calibration method for vector magnetograms made by the Solar Flare Telescope of BOAO. To identify Fe I 6302.5 line, we have scanned monochromatic images of the line integrated over filter passband, changing the location of the central transmission wavelength of a Lyot filter. Then we obtained a filter-convolved line profile, which is in good agreement with spectral atlas data provided by the Sacramento Peak Solar Observatory. The line profile has been used to derive calibration coefficients of longitudinal and transverse fields, employing the conventional line slope method under the weak field approximation. Our improved nonlinear calibration method has also been used to calculate theoretical Stokes polarization signals with various angles of inclination of magnetic fields. For its numerical test, we have compared input magnetic fields with the calibrated ones, which have been derived from the new improved non-linear method and the conventional method respectively. The numerical test shows that the calibrated fields obtained from the improved method are consistent with the input fields, but not with those from the conventional method. Finally, we applied our new improved method to a dipole model which characterizes a typical field configuration of a single, round sunspot. It is noted that the conventional method remarkably underestimates the transverse field component near the inner penumbra.

In order to look into the internal structure and electrical properties of insulating Silicone rubbers added reinforcing fillers ; Silica(0-140 phr ), and to examine the behavior of charged particles, and the properties of thermally stimulated current (TSC) are investigated, respectively. From the TSC which are formed by applying the electric field of 2~5 ㎸/mm to specimen at temperature range from -150 to $270^{\circ}C$, the results arp as following. In the case of non-filled specimen, four peaks of $\delta$, $\gamma$ , $\beta$ and u are obtained at the temperature of $-120^{\circ}C$, $-60^{\circ}C$, $20^{\circ}C$ and $130^{\circ}C$, respectively and the case of filled specimen, three peaks of $\delta$, ${\alpha}_2$ and ${\alpha}_1$ are observed at the temperature of of $-120^{\circ}C$, $80^{\circ}C$ and $130^{\circ}C$, respectively. The origins of these peaks are that, the $\delta$ peak seems to the result from the contribution of side chain methyl radical, and the $\beta$ peak from the depolarization of space charge polarization owing to added imputity during during manufacturing specimens, and the $\beta$ peak from the orientation of $Si-CH_3$dipole, and the ${\alpha}_2$ near the temperature of $130^{\circ}C$ from carboxyl acid that is formed by the thermal oxidation of high temperature.
